Subject: 1st Amendment non issues
I need some protection too.
When corporations enjoy First Amendment protections it essentially nullifies the
speech rights of individuals, since individuals cannot afford the massive
advertising campaigns that corporations wage, and so cannot talk back.
Corporations are far too powerful already. The FDA should seek the right
balance between individuals and corporations in the arena of public
health, and not tip it further towards corporations and their lobbyists in our
nationís capital.
